Due to a reorganisation within our Finance team, we are currently seeking to recruit a Trips and Finance Administration Assistant, with excellent ICT, numeracy, organisational and interpersonal skills, to start as soon as possible. The postholder will support the wider Finance Team and Finance Manager in delivering an effective finance service to the school.
The Weald is a high achieving, popular and oversubscribed 11-18 comprehensive school and sixth form college, situated in the heart of the West Sussex countryside, 10 minutes from Horsham, 35 minutes from Guildford and Brighton, and an hour by train to London. The school has an excellent record of academic and pastoral achievement, and we pride ourselves in creating a caring and respectful ethos where every child is important. Our A-level results routinely place us in the top 3 sixth form providers in West Sussex; in 2024, at GCSE our students achieved almost half a grade higher than their expected outcomes*.
* There are no Progress 8 measures for 2025 due to students not sitting Year 6 SATS.
The closing date for applications is 10am on Monday 29th September 2025
Please note that interviews will be held on Monday 6th October 2025
Applications should be made by downloading and completing our application form (please see attachments below) and emailing it to jobs@theweald.org.uk
